Thank you. When I typed
..mfx compute, predict (outcome)#3)
'there is no outcome #3
there are only 2 categories
r(111)
This was the message I got.
There should be 3 categories.
When I did a tabulation of the dependent variable
price, I got
ta price
price Freq. Percent Cum
--------------------------------------
1 14,309 57.16 57.16
2 6,693 26.74 83.90
3 4,030 16.10 100.00
____________________________________________
Total 25,032 1000.00
Can anyone tell me what preciesely I need to do to
obtain the marginal effects given the above.
Thanks in advance
